Difficulty: medium
Work time: 8-12 hours.
I. Preparatory work.
For work, we need:
1. Skills for crocheting basic elements;
2.Plush yarn in two colors. I have GalaMix white and yellow flowers. White will need about 30 grams, yellow – 60 grams. But I recommend taking in full hank, for sure;
3.Orange Alize Softy 30 grams for mane;
4. Brown or black cotton yarn for knitting nose and embroidery muzzle. I have – Narcissus PNK them. S.M. Kirov;
5. 4-5mm hook for plush yarn. Navigate at its knitting density. Need to pick a hook in which there will be no holes in the canvas. For I use a 4mm hook for this yarn, for YarnArt Dolce and similar – 5 mm;
6.Hook suitable for knitting with cotton yarn. For Narcissus, I use a hook 1.5-2mm;
7.Sintepuh or other filler;
8. Eyes on a secure mount 12-14mm. I will use black eyes 12mm. Usually used what is at hand. Next up is improvisation.
9.White felt for eyes. If you are planning use eyes with a diameter of 14 mm then in use of felt is not necessary.
10. A needle with a thick eye for sewing on parts. Using these materials, lion growth is about 30 cm.
Important notice! The yarn consumption indicated in paragraph 1 of the section I, is very subjective and depends on the density of knitting, which is individual for everyone.
Legend:
Magic ring-amigurumi ring;
Sc is a single crochet;
Hdc – half crochet;
İnc – increase, that is, we knit 2Sc from one column;
Dec – decrease, that is, from two columns we make one.
In parentheses indicate the number of loops, which in the result will be in a row.
All parts, without exception, are knitted in a spiral
We knit all the columns for both segments of the columns previous row. Exception: using the method invisible decreases.
I recommend using the method of invisible decreases.
Cooking eyes:
Cooking eyes:
1. Take the felt and puck from the eye. Usually the puck is a little more eyes.
2. Circle the washer on felt along the contour (I circled penny coin. It turned out to be too big, so cut by washer) cut through hole with offset from center like shown on the picture
3. Insert eyes in felt.
4. We cut excess felt with one side of the eye.
IMPORTANT! All traces from the pen, pencil and other things must be hidden on inside out.
Oops! Picture from another MK but the meaning is the same
Handles, they are front paws (2 parts):
White yarn:
1 row: 6 Sc into Magic Ring (6);
2 row: İnc x 6 times (12);
3-5 row (3 rows): 12 Sc (12);
6 row: (Dec, Sc) x 4 times (8);
7 row: 8 Sc (8);
Yarn yellow:
8-15 rows (8 rows): 8 Sc (8).
Paws do not fill, fold in half and connect 4
Sc. We fix the thread and hide the tip inside the bloopers. wewe will knit paws in the body.
Legs (hind legs), torso and head fit one
detail:
First we knit the right paw.
We start with white yarn:
1 row: 6 Sc into Magic Ring (6);
2 row: İnc x 6 times (12);
3 row: (Sc, İnc) x6 times (18);
4 row: (2 Hdc in the column of the previous row x 3 times, 6
Sc) x2 times (24);
5-6 rows (2 rows): 24Sc (24);
7th row: Decx4 times, 14Sc, Dec (19);
8 row: Decх3rase, 11Sc, Dec (15);
9 row: Decx2 times, 11Sc (13);
10 row: 13 Sc (13);
11 row: 8 Sc with white yarn, change the thread to blue,
knit to the end of the row 5 Sc (13); In this way,
the transition from changing the color of the yarn will be at the back.
12-15 row (4 rows): 13 Sc (13);
IMPORTANT! When knitting 15 rows of the right paw 13th Sc
replace the connecting column. Therefore
connecting column we will join the legs.
Cut the thread, hide the tip inside the legs.
Similarly, we knit the left paw, the thread is not cut.
We begin to knit the torso. When knitting the body sometimes
errors occur. Because yarn is quite moody and
dissolve it is not recommended, read carefully
note at the end of each row. It will help you
get out of any situation.
1 row: We put a marker at the beginning of the row! Knit 7Sc by
left paw, 2 air loops, then knit 13 Sc
right paw, then 2 Sc along the chain of air
loops, 6 Sc of the left paw, It turned out 30 Sc. Hinges
need to recount!
IMPORTANT! So that there are no holes when connecting the paws to
chain, we do this: we knit 13 Sc of the right paw.
There will be a feeling that one Sc is not tied. Grab it
and the first VP of the chain (as if making the usual decrease),
knit. Next, capture the second VP and the same 7-
oh Sc of the left paw, after which we started to knit
the chain. Knit. Next, we knit according to the scheme 6Sc left paws.
You should have paws with socks
look in different directions at the same angle. Not
club-footed and not turned in one direction.
2 row: İnc, 5Sc, İnc, 2Sc, İnc, 5 Sc, İnc, 5 Sc, İnc, 2Sc, İnc,
5Sc (36); In a given row 2 and 3, 5 and 6 increases
are located on both sides of the jumper from
air loops.
3 row: (İnc, 5Sc) x 6 times (42);
4-10 rows (7 rows): 42 Sc (42);
11 row: 30Sc, 4 Dec, 4 Sc (38): given reductions we
form the ass. Make sure they are level
in the middle of the back. If decreases for some reason
are located
To the left, go to the right, then try others
options for their placement. For example: 29Sc, 4 Dec, 5 Sc or
31Sc, 4 Dec, 3 Sc. In the end, you should still get 38
Sc in a row.
We stuff the legs.
12 row: 6Sc, Dec, 10 Sc, Dec, 10Sc, 2Dec, 4Sc (34);
13 row: 6Sc, Dec, 9Sc, Dec, 10Sc, Dec, 3Sc (31);
14 row: 6Sc, Dec, 9Sc, Dec, 8Sc, Dec, 2Sc (28);
15 row: 6Sc, Dec, 7Sc, Dec, 7 Sc, Dec, 2Sc (25);
16 row: 22 Sc, Dec (24);
17 row: 5 Sc, Dec, 6 Sc, Dec, 6 Sc, Dec, Sc (21);
18 row: (5 Sc, Dec) x 3 times (18); In this row we knit
paws this way: 3Sc, we join a paw, we knit along
at the junction 2 Sc, Dec, then we knit 5 Sc, Dec, again we join
paw, we knit at the joint 4 Sc, then we knit Sc, Dec.
Make sure that the pens, they are the paws, are located on
its place and symmetrically relative to the rest
body parts.
19 row: 18Sc (18);
20 row: (Dec, Sc) x6 times (12);
If you already messed up something, then improvise! All
decreases are located along the spine and
symmetrically to the side of the tummy.
We stuff the body by 2/3, not more. If filler
it will be too much, it will be inconvenient to knit your head.
Too little – in the future it will be difficult to distribute
its evenly.
Start knitting your head
1 row: for the front wall half loop of the 20th row
torso (İnc, Sc) x 6 times (18);
2 row: (İnc, 2Sc) x 6 times (24);
3 row: (İnc, 3Sc) x 6 times (30);
4 row: (İnc, 4Sc) x 6 times (36);
5 row: (İnc, 5Sc) x 6 times (42);
6 row: (İnc, 6Sc) x 6 times (48);
7-13 rows (7 rows): 48 Sc (48)
We insert eyes between 10 and 11 rows at a distance of 3-4
Sc between the edges of the eyes.
14 row: (6Sc, Dec) x 6 times (42);
15 row: (5Sc, Dec) x 6 times (36);
16 row: (4 Sc, Dec) x 6 times (30);
Stuff the body and ½ head.
17 row: (3Sc, Dec) x 6 times (24);
18 row: (2Sc, Dec) x 6 times (18);
Stuff your head.
19 row: (Sc, Dec) x 6 times (12);
20 row: Decx 6 times (6).
Tighten the hole, tighten the thread, fasten it and hide
inside the head.
Muzzle (1 piece):
White yarn.
1 row: 6 Sc into Magic Ring (6);
2 row: (İnc of Hdc x 2 times, İnc) x 2 times (12);
3-5 rows (3 rows): 12 Sc (12).
With yellow yarn we collect 4 VP and knit with rotary
rows of 3 rows of 4 Sc, where the first Sc is the aerial
lifting loop. At the end of knitting, leave the tip of the thread
about 20 cm long for sewing on the square to
face.
Nose (1 piece)
With brown cotton yarn, we collect 3 p in the Magic ring and
we knit several rows in rotary rows, making 1
increase in a row until you get the nose the right size.
The nose must be tied in a circle.
Ears (2 parts).
1 row: 6 Sc into Magic Ring (6);
2 row: İnc x 6 times (12);
3-4 row (2 rows): 12 Sc (12);
5 row: (2 Sc, Dec) x 3 times (9).
We fix the thread, leave the end with a length of 20 centimeters
for sewing ears.
Sew the ears to the head between 5 and 8 rows, if
count the rows from above.
We collect the muzzle, as in the picture, and sew
as close to the eyes as possible.
Tail (1 piece).
With yellow yarn we collect 8 VP, we return along chain 7
Sc.
Mane.
Mane is the final and perhaps the most time-consuming
process.
For mane you need to cut Alize Softy yarn
orange in segments of 10-12 cm and folding the segments
in half, fasten them to each loop of the head, bypassing
muzzle area. And don’t forget to make a brush on the tip
tail
After you collect all the mane, the beast can be a little
cut.
The lion is ready! Not difficult, right?
